Effect level:
570 mg/kg bw
95% CL:
424 - 766
Remarks on result:
other: Slope of the mortality curve: 5.6
Mortality:
Male: 400 mg/kg bw; Number of animals: 5; Number of deaths: 0
Female: 400 mg/kg bw; Number of animals: 5; Number of deaths: 1
Female: 640 mg/kg bw; Number of animals: 5; Number of deaths: 3
Female: 800 mg/kg bw; Number of animals: 5; Number of deaths: 4
Clinical signs:
Signs of toxicity related to dose levels:
One female at 400mg/kg, three females at 640 mg/kg and four
females at 800mg/kg died during the study. All deaths
occurred within ca. 48 hours of dosing. A slight bodyweight
loss was recorded for the majority of decedents.


Clinical signs of reaction to treatment included
piloerection, hunched posture, waddling /unsteady gait,
lethargy, respiratory distress, partially closed eyelids,
pallid extremities, increased salivation, walking on toes
and cold body surfaces, seen in all rats at all doses.


In addition, faecal disturbances, increased lacrimation,
body tremors, prostration, swollen abdomen and thin
appearance were seen among rats at one or more dose levels.


Recovery of surviving rats was complete in all instances by
Day 11.
Gross pathology:
Effects on organs:
Macroscopic examination of decedents revealed congestive
changes (characterised by dark tissue, prominent blood
vessels / inflammation), in the majority of organs and
tissues.

No abnormalities were revealed at the macroscopic
examination of surviving rats on Day 15.
